Spaghetti Eis Bitburg, Germany

So while in Germany, I heard about this treat called Spaghetti Eis (Spaghetti Ice). Apparently, it's a unique specialty that originated in Germany. I'd vaguely heard about it on some Food Network show once, but didn't really put it together. One of our days in Bitburg, most of which were quite cool-- people were buying jackets and sweaters-- we decided to sum up a few hours of shopping with a stop in the local ice cream shoppe. Of course, we all ordered spaghetti eis! I really enjoyed this delectable creation. Beneath the vanilla ice cream noodles was some whipped cream. A delicious strawberry sauce covered the "noodles" and the "cheese" was shreds of white chocolate. So good! The little wafer wasn't particularly memorable, but overall the whole creation was delectable! I've found some recipes online for the strawberry sauce, so one of these days i'm going to find a spaetzel maker for the noodles and make the concotion. YUM!

I have a spaetzel maker. We will have to give it a try.
